I doubt I am not alone in this opinion. I rely on both of you for great advice and am happy you are there as resources on this board. The whole Hatfield/McCoy thing is fun to watch too.

Boardmember- You suck because you never did one of your cool side by side, thoughtful, incisive narratives when I asked for feedback on my DDs mechanics. I will harbor this grudge forever possibly into the afterlife.

HalSkinner-You are the Andy Rooney (RIP) of this board and I love a good curmudgeon, you break things down exquisitely a lot of the time, but I agree that there are some things that are absolute and a lot more that is style. IR=absolute, how closed the hips are at release=optional.

Now hug it out and get back to helping us bucket dads.

"IR=absolute, how closed the hips are at release=optional."

IR is going to happen but does not need to be focused on to MAKE it happen. If you want to call THAT an absolute, I couldnt care less.

Where the hips are at LANDING FOOT TOUCHDOWN is NOT optional for the safest mechanics for the female shoulder complex. Hips at 45 degrees at LFT is the safest and is proven. Dont be mislead by that little change in wording and timing. Release points can vary a great deal, depending on the movement pitch you are throwing. Where the ball is at LFT is not a variable that changes with an individual pitcher or a style of pitching.

We are going slingshot. I'm actually reposting some video after tonight's practice so if you really are gonna take a look, wait for the new video por favor.

JJ - every minute BM spends giving an invaluable free video analysis of YOUR DD's pitching mechanics is a minute that BM will NOT spend giving an invaluable free video analysis of MY DD's pitching mechanics...
